When the green light turn We both step the pedal to max i got him on the light he still next to me when i shift second i chirped i pull on him like less then car lenght shift to 3rd i burn him like a car lenght. The race was bad because he tires keep spinning on first gear. The second race me and him again in light when the light turn green we both step to max i still got him he still next to me on door side when i shift to second i chirped the car i still pulling on him hard damn when 3rd gears come shiet he pulled on me like so fast i lost to him on this one i lost to hime like car lenght or half around there.

I dont know if this is just suppose to be for your first races with your civic but I will go ahead and tell my story.
So I was driving home from school and I meet up with a friend who I havent seen for awhile because he was kicked out of school because of his grades. Well anyhow he has a Mitsubishi Eclipse RS 5 spd. and I well I have 02 Civic DX 5spd. He asked if I wanted to race and I said OK. So we line up and his passenger counted to three. On three I released the clutch and stomped and the gas pedal. I chirped second and shifted to third and next thing I know the road was coming to an end and I ended up beating him pretty bad. He didnt believe it and we decided to do it again. And yes I beat him again. Well a month later I got 18 in wheels and that same guy wanted to race and of coarse he beat me by like a fender but I expected a lot more because he told me he became a better driver. As we speak he has become a better driver but damn wouldnt it be embarassing to be beaten by a DX CIVIC? Well thats my story I hope its not too long. Sorry if it is.

i love it when civics beat eclipses!!

But ive raced two cars that i knew both the people, i usually dont race strangers unless they're being d**ks and i know i can win. The first one was my friend and his 93 Civic HB, sri, exhaust, and ground wires. At the time he was a better driver than me and had been racing me and beat me by a car length, maybe a little less.

A couple weeks ago my friend got an integra LS auto, still stock and i beat him by 1 1/2 car lengths or so, it was a good race til about 4th gear then he almost caught up. Its a non VTEC too and i have a LX, with only new spark plugs. Im going to race him again with the AEM intake and exhaust...cant wait

Maybe the only reason I beat him was because he had engine problems. I just saw it in the shop today.

Lude S only has 135HP. RS would be base model, they should have around 140HP. I'm not surprised about the 240 pulling... their gear ratios seem to be better spaced plus rear drive, and torquey, of course, driving a 240 with a KA to redline is NOT the way to race.
